Overall, reviews describe Mollo Café Gelato as a place with excellent drinks, standout gelato, and enjoyable grilled cheese options, including vegan choices, with friendly service and a relaxing vibe; some praise the spacious, bright atmosphere and working-friendly setup, while others criticize the new location for uncomfortable seating, dark lighting, and a confusing layout with a central communal table that can feel risky or disruptive; there are occasional complaints about slow or inconsistent service and even that grilled cheese can be frozen, but many also note great coffee, pastries, and a welcoming neighborhood feel, making it a popular casual stop despite adjustments in space and hours.
The vibe seems really cute, but I went a good hour before closing & they told me they weren't making grilled cheese anymore. Would have been good to make this information available online, I would have made other plans.

C'est peut-être lié au déménagement mais j'ai dû attendre une bonne demi-heure heure pour un grill cheese brûlé qui m'a coûté 12$
Je préfère de loin la boulangerie...
My new favorite spot in Pointe Sainte Charles. Super cute place & merch, the service is perfect, & the food is insane! I had one of the best (portobello!) grilled cheese of my life, the coffee is great & they do their own pastries at their pastry shop 2 doors away. Perfect place for a sunny morning.
Friendly & knowledgeable staff, lovely music choices, & great coffee. This place is a gem! Looking forward to their relocation so the menu will expand to include more substantial food options.

I am really happy to visit here! I can't find easily a simple "chocolate scone" at cafes, & it was excellent. Beautiful golden colour, the edge is crisp, & buttery & flaky inside….LOVE IT! I had flat white. It's also good. I was impressed the scone more than flat white. I want to try other scone next time! I felt the cafe is loved by neighborhood. People are smiling, & good vibes! There is getting beautiful sunlight.
Really love the mollo bread! Absolutely amazing. Other treats can be dry. Unfortunately when I go it seems staff are distracted & my order is wrong in some way 1/2 the time, but when it's right it's amazing!!
The gelato is amazing, very creamy. The worker was super sweet & there is a very alluring selection of local products! I only wish the flat white was bigger. Thank you
Le café est sympathique. Niveau cuisine, c'est juste bon. Le grilled cheese était bon mais sans plus, la glace vanille était excellent mais je n'ai pas pu tout aimé le sorbet ananas
